How do we design products we actually want to keep?

On May 20, the British designer and researcher Jonathan Chapman visits Designmuseum Denmark for an engaging and interactive talk on Emotional Durability – a concept he helped define.

Drawing on his research and practice, Chapman shares insights into how design can strengthen our emotional relationships with the things that surround us, and how affection and attachment in particular can extend the lifespan of products.

The format actively invites the audience into the conversation and opens up reflection on how we can design for more responsible and long-lasting relationships between people and things.
